“The Lodge is very homey and comforting. As we walked in, there was no real check-in desk, but instead an employee walks you to your room and explains the features of the grounds. I really like that most of the amenities are 24/7, like the pool and gym. The property is only 57 rooms, making it private and quiet. Upon entry to the room, there is a great small bar area that has complementary wines, drinks, filled ice, snacks and fruit. The bath also comes with complimentary bath salts, a nice touch. All these small amenities are what makes Bernardus stand out from other hotels. We will definitely be back.” said Kent L. of Sacramento, CA.
